Trails
| Trail | Length | Difficulty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trails | 10 mi | — | Take to the hills with more than 10 miles of mountain bike trails. Ride along Mission Ridge Road or out to the Wheeler Reservoir, if you're looking for a more rugged ride. For beginners, practice your skills at Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance’s practice area. An easy four-mile loop meanders around the park and is a great hike for families with kids. You can also trek up the Clara Lake and Marion Lake Trail, a moderate hike that begins inside the park and takes you to two tree-ringed lakes. |
